Parkcast is the best podcast for informative content and interviews. Not just about parks and rides, but about the people who contribute to the public’s enjoyment of theme parks. The host Bex is really engaging and funny. But she also asks great questions and keeps the whole thing moving along. Her interviews are really interesting and she always has great guests.
My only reason for not rating this 5* is due to guest “influencers”. It might just be me, but I get sick of hearing what the same 2 or 3 influencers have to say about topics, they have all got their own platforms to discuss that.
I come here to listen to other peoples opinions not theirs on repeat. I much prefer the guest professionals on this podcast as they offer a far more in depth understanding and reality to things.
Overall: An amazing podcast with a good pace not found on others. Subject... more
I've been searching for a theme park podcast that truly keeps me coming back, and Parkcast delivers every time! The hosts are fantastic—engaging, honest, and genuinely passionate about the subject. With insightful guests and captivating topics, each episode offers the perfect blend of fascinating facts and fun. It’s informative, entertaining, and often laugh-out-loud funny. If you're a theme park enthusiast, this is a must-listen. I absolutely love it!
Most other theme park podcasts are now talking about hotels, tickets, food or surveys. This isn’t why we enjoy the hearing about what’s going on in the industry! Parkcast talks all about attractions, lands, theming etc. it’s always a good listen. Looking forward to more coverage on the upcoming UK Universal park.
